What a gift to be able to drive to work in Australia and to be able to listen to your wise words before I teach our next generation about the environment and sustainability. When is the book - your transliteration - going to be released??!! I can feel such a strong upwelling of energy to immerse myself in the Gita fro... more

I feel blessed every time I get to hear her speak and am honored with her presence. The Secret Power of Yoga, her translation of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, is fantastic, as are all her other books.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Pratyahara: Withdrawing the Senses on the Yogic Path
Q: What are some of the main practices that you've taught for Pratyahara?
Trataka is one practice, holding a candle steady, or using uplifting images. The power of japa, repeating a mantra internally, also helps in focusing the senses inward.
The Chariot of the Self: Unpacking the Metaphor at the Heart of the Bhagavad Gita
Q: Why is that we are told to be patient about pain we experience?
We should remember that sensations of the senses come and go, they are by nature impermanent.
